Suppose I have this value label assigned to the variable totavmte_q:
totavmte_q_lab:
1 <=Q1 (43.25)
2 Q1 to <=Q2 (64.35)
3 Q2 to <=Q3 (96.54)
4 >Q3
and I want to regress:
xi: logistic status i.totavmte_q
Stata will nicely create the following dummies:
_Itotavmte__2
_Itotavmte__3
_Itotavmte__4
Now I want to label the dummy variables so that they reflect the value
labels
e.g.
. label variable _Itotavmte__2 "Q1 to <=Q2 (64.35)"
I am wondering if there is a way to label the dummy variables by way of
referencing their associated value labels (these var labels will be used in
the contest of the user-written estout program).
Thanks for any suggestion,
Thomas Speidel
